    '''Androgyne''' is an identity under the [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] umbrella. It is described as being simultaneously [[Man|male]] and [[Woman|female]] or in between male and female, or as being simultaneously masculine and feminine or in between masculine and feminine. Some androgyne people may identify as [[bigender]], with one masculine gender and one feminine gender, while others may identify as a single gender that is somewhere in between man and woman or masculine and feminine, but not completely one or the other.

Some androgyne people also feel a connection to neutrality.


    One does not necessarily have to feel equal amounts of [[Masculine|masculinity]] and [[Feminine|femininity]]. For example, one could feel 80% feminine and 20% masculine and still be androgyne. For some androgyne people the amount of masculinity and femininity they feel can be [[Genderfluid|fluid]].

    Another alternate androgyne flag was designed by wrennnnnnnnn and post on r/QueerVexillology on June 19, 2020. Orange is used as a lesser known masculine color, one that doesn't play off of the pink vs. blue aesthetic. Purple, similarly, is an alternate feminine color. The white in the middle represents an absence of gender, same as on the [[genderqueer]] and non-binary flags. The Necker Cube is used in the middle as an androgyne symbol. The teal is a mixture of two colors, both gendered on opposite sides of the binary.

    Another androgyne flag was designed by emsydacat on August 1, 2021. There are two thinner stripes of equal size, which are pink, representing femininity, and blue, representing masculinity, and one thick purple stripe, representing a mix of the two, as well as neutrality. Emphasis is put on the purple stripe through the difference in size to represent how androgyne people fall between masculine and feminine, rather than being one or the other.


    Other symbols of androgyny include the the Necker Cube. In was proposed as a symbol in 1996 by an androgyne person, Raphael Carter, due to it's ambiguous geometric shape. Carter says "because it is either concave or convex depending on how you look at it."<ref>https://practicalandrogyny.com/2011/06/25/the-necker-cube-symbol-for-androgyny/</ref>
